I finished my Christmas stocking for the Lincoln Quilter's Guild this morning. I used a bunny from the pattern, Rabbits Prefer Embroidery, by Bunny Hill Designs. I looked in my stash and found other pieces that would work with the redwork. I also hand quilted it with Finca Perle Cotton No 8 and Sulky 12 wt. cotton. I liked the Sulky cotton better, because it was not as heavy and easier to pull through the fabric and batting. I hope the owner will enjoy the stocking! I will post photos of all the stockings displayed after our next Guild meeting in November.

The stocking is very nice. You did nice work.
That is a very cute stocking. Who would a thought!
I read about your stocking on Anne Sutton's blog. It's just beautiful! You should make a pattern for the stocking part, and we could add our choice of embroidery. (Love YOUR choice!)
What a great idea! It is so so cute!! Nice Job!
